Dependable

(Andy - 6/19/09)

Yes, the battery door is a bit cheap. We use these cameras at our department and the things never die! I've used them in rain right away from pulling it out of a 120 degree (at least) car. I absolutely love these cameras.

Their picture is excellent for the price and the ability to take a picture without having the thing "boot up or start up" like my Photosmart R927 does, I can take a picture immediately. (especially helpful if you want to catch a moment!)
